Our smashed cucumber and pork Szechuan stir-fry recipe is a satisfying main packed with spices

A speedy Thai prawn bowl packed with flavour

Grapefruit adds a lovely tart note to this salad and marries brilliantly with sweet prawns

Homemade stir-fry sauce is much more delicious than shop-bought, and cheaper too. Once you have the Asian store cupboard essentials, you'll be set for lots more stir-fries to come!

Tofu can be bland, so it’s good to pep it up with some big, bold flavours during cooking. The sesame trio in this recipe - oil, tahini and seeds - will deliver exactly the kind of complex flavour combination you need. For an even bigger flavour punch, look out for Chinese ‘tahini’, a rich sesame paste where the seeds are darkly toasted before being ground for a deeper intensity

Pak choi is used often in Asian cuisine, but other veg work with this chicken recipe too, such as Tenderstem broccoli or asparagus spears

This comforting bowlful is like a noodle soup. It's packed with veg and cold-busting ginger and chilli. Perfect for a chilly day

This is a delicious dig-in dinner. If you want something more hearty, serve the chicken with egg-fried rice instead of the wraps

This delicious noodle dish only uses a small amount of meat as a flavouring instead of making it the main element of the meal, cutting down on fat and calories
